Re: Pentax lens selection

If you want a faster zoom and don't need to go too wide, you could opt for the Pentax 24-70 f/2.8 which was designed for full frame but should work fine for APSC.  Just throwing out another thought/option.

Quite honestly, from what I've heard about the 16-85, I'd probably go for it if I were you, that is unless you're planning on shooting a bunch of indoor stuff and or need to maximize bokeh effects.
